Howie Mandel to Perform at Sarasota's Van Wezel, 3/3

Howie Mandel will perform at the Van Wezel Performing Arts Hall on March 3, 2013. The comedic commentary that helped propel America's Got Talent into the pop culture limelight has been an entertainment staple for 30 years.

In the 1980's he received national recognition for his 6 year run on the TV show "St. Elsewhere." He has lent his voice to numerous movies and cartoons, even creating a hit cartoon show, "Bobby's World," which was nominated for an Emmy Award. More recently he hosted the wildly popular game show "Deal or No Deal." Howie Mandel is highly regarded for his quirky brand of observational comedy, and often employs improvisation in to his standup act, solidifying his status as an excellent multi-threat of the entertainment world.
